People used to connect to others through mails or Facebook, but here is Twitter, the latest social networking tools that allows the users to share anything, in anywhere and anytime, any second. Twitter means sharing the news. Even the politician like the Prime Minister of Malaysia, Datuk Seri Najib Razak, has more than 19,000 followers on his twitter. He also use Twitter to promote his campaign on One Malaysia and his website.
Besides it is useful for some research tools, the Twitter subscribers can get update on what they think or feel on particular issue or topics, which we believe that any media like televisions or newspapers cannot do in a short time. Even some magazines or companies start their publishing and advertisement on Twitter, for example: Seventeen Magazine, NY. Twitter does not limit the users in connecting with other users, by just simply clicking the follow button. You can meet other talented, smart and insightful users on Twitter. Seventeen Magazine could easily get their reader latest comments, idea, or critics on the content of the magazine in Twitter (which you will need at least a week by using post-mail).
World's is changing so fast where we can't hardly keep up (sometimes). Keep it up now with the Tweety birds!
